This recipe was inspired by a cookbook that included recipes from Russia, Germany and Eastern Europe. If I recall correctly, the inspiration for this recipe came from the Russian part of the cookbook. The fennel and caraway seeds added an aroma that is out of the ordinary. The fresh dill used for garnishing purposes came out of my herbs in my small balcony.This simple, yet healthy and delicious meal will keep you very satisfied.
1 lb salmon fillet
1 tsp fennel seeds
1 tsp caraway seeds
2 tsp salt
2 tsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
4-5 sprigs of dill for decoration
Heat your oven to 350º.
Place the salmon fillet on a Pyrex dish. Rub the fish fillet with the ingredients equally on each side. Cover with aluminum foil.
When the oven is ready, bake fish covered for 15 minutes. Remove cover and bake another 15-20 minutes uncovered. Place on serving plates and decorate with dill. Enjoy with rice pilaf or potatoes.
Sounds like a delicious salmon dish, and the dill looks great!
ReplyDeleteI am so used to fresh water fish, I don't dare much to cook with any other fish. I do get salmon sometimes. I think this is one grat recipe with the fennel and caraway seeds.
